ANGES: reconstructing ANcestral GEnomeS maps
SUMMARY ANGES is a suite of Python programs that allows reconstructing ancestral genome maps from the comparison of the organization of extant-related genomes. ANGES can reconstruct ancestral genome maps for multichromosomal linear genomes and unichromosomal circular genomes. It implements methods inspired from techniques developed to compute physical maps of extant genomes. Examples of cereal,...
متن کاملReconstructing the evolution of vertebrate sex chromosomes.
Sex chromosomes and their evolution have captivated researchers since their discovery. For more than 100 years, the dominant model of sex chromosome evolution has held that differentiated sex chromosomes, such as the X and Y chromosomes of mammals or the Z and W chromosomes of birds, evolved from ordinary autosomes, primarily through the degeneration of the sex-specific Y or W chromosome. At th...
متن کاملReconstructing ancestral character states: a critical reappraisal.
Using parsimony to reconstruct ancestral character states on a phylogenetic tree has become a popular method for testing ecological and evolutionary hypotheses. Despite its popularity, the assumptions and uncertainties of reconstructing the ancestral states of a single character have received less attention than the much less challenging endeavor of reconstructing phylogenetic trees from many c...
متن کاملReconstructing Ancestral Gene Orders Using Conserved Intervals
Conserved intervals were recently introduced as a measure of similarity between genomes whose genes have been shuffled during evolution by genomic rearrangements. Phylogenetic reconstruction based on such similarity measures raises many biological, formal and algorithmic questions, in particular the labelling of internal nodes with putative ancestral gene orders, and the selection of a good tre...
متن کاملReconstructing Ancestral Haplotypes with a Dictionary Model
We propose a dictionary model for haplotypes. According to the model, a haplotype is constructed by randomly concatenating haplotype segments from a given dictionary of segments. A haplotype block is defined as a set of haplotype segments that begin and end with the same pair of markers. In this framework, haplotype blocks can overlap, and the model provides a setting for testing the accuracy o...
